5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to deep Lectio

Very short read. I have read it three times now. Excellent introduction / primer. I look forward to purchasing the full-size book. I think this was a great idea offering the trimmed-down version for a very low price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Penetrates to the heart
Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2020

This is the best, clearest explanation of what happens during lectio divina in the soul. It is more than just a how to manual. Scripture, St. John of the Cross, St. Teresa of Jesus, St. Augustine and our church fathers are quoted to bring more clarity to each step of the process of making a space in our soul so that God’s word can go deep into us and heal our will. His healing is specific for each person each day - we just need to be still so we can receive it. Once received, the Holy Spirit gives us strength to fulfill it in action. I am very grateful to Jean Khoury for this very beautiful and practical guide to the practice of lectio divina.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Little Intense
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 16, 2024
Verified Purchase
I was looking for a simple explanation of following the practice of Lectio Divina - mindful daily reading of the Bible.
Purely a personal thing, but I found this rather intense and rather Catholic in nature (the author is from the Catholic tradition) which made the practice seem more like a duty than a pleasure. a practice rather than an experience.
Easily read, quite short and it does give you an insight into the practice but it left me a little flat and I feel it could put some readers off.
